Managed Security Services FAQs
What is meant by managed security services?
Organisations outsource managed security services to third-party providers to mitigate the daily pressures of security risks and resource constraints.
Recent trends such as hybrid cloud, edge computing and work-from-anywhere have complicated the IT landscape. As more devices and users connect to networks from virtually anywhere, an organisation’s security risk posture increases tremendously.
Building and maintaining quality, in-house security is challenging due to the effort needed to select the best security technology and source and retain the right security talent. Managed security services perform several functions to augment and optimise an organisation’s existing security measures.
What does a managed security provider do?
A managed security provider offers application, network, cloud and edge security services to organisations that don’t have the budget or resources to develop internal security capabilities. They provide a systematic approach to managing security needs. Functions include tasks like:
- Intrusion prevention and detection
- Firewall management
- Vulnerability scanning and patch management
- Round-the-clock monitoring and alert management
- Security assessments and audits
- Incident response and recovery
Managed security providers maintain and upgrade their security infrastructure to provide cutting-edge protection at all times.
What is the difference between managed services and managed security services?
Managed services are an umbrella term for all types of IT services that an organisation can outsource to a third-party provider. Managed security services specifically refer to security monitoring and management. The term managed services often refers to IT infrastructure services like hosting, database management and server provisioning. Some managed service providers may also provide security assistance, but a managed security service provider is a better choice if you want comprehensive application and data protection.
